8. Sellers – What does this mean to you?
List Now - low inventory means less competition making
this a good time to go on the market.
Waiting May Cost You – if you wait you may sell for
more, but you’ll also pay more for your next home.
Be Prepared – be ready to move. Get your financing in
order so you can buy your next home. Have a backup
plan in case you sell before you find a new home to buy.
Price It Right – correct pricing is the key to selling in
any market. Even at the peak, houses that were over-
priced did not sell. Consult an expert.
